Is this the same EWB that had the H2X that had motor problems about this time last year? If so, whats up and did you get things ironed out? Remember I had an issue about the same time and mine ended up being the knock sensor.

We did a procharged (4.5lbs boost stage 3) 502 with headers, MSD, aeromotive fuel system, hydraulic steering, nose cone, drive shower, and last weekend BOOM lost the BRAVO now we go there. 88.6 on GPS we lost rutter blew hubs on the props, it walks we've been told to try an extension box and raise it 3 inches, and 1.36 gears so we won't have to change props.

I'm sure the X is fairly conservative. Has anyone tried a shorter lower unit on this boat?
